jeffgrune Posted March 20, 2015 Share Posted March 20, 2015 I still use form•Z 6.6 for one of my clients. I'm considering upgrading to OSX Yosemite. There's a "hot fix" for v 8. Anything necessary for 6.6? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tech Posted March 20, 2015 Share Posted March 20, 2015 Hi Jeff, We have tested formZ v6.7 with Yosemite briefly and it seems to be working properly, but it is not supported there, and it has not been fully tested. formZ v6.6 will launch on Yosemite if an installation has been copied from another computer, but we have not tested that further. formZ 7 has a Hot Fix that is necessary for Yosemite, but v8 works fine with Yosemite directly.

jeffgrune Posted March 20, 2015 Author Share Posted March 20, 2015 I'll take that as "proceed with caution" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tech Posted March 20, 2015 Share Posted March 20, 2015 We have no reason to tell you it won't work, but yes... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
¢hris £und Posted March 20, 2015 Share Posted March 20, 2015 I use 6.7.3 with Yosemite. I have not had issues. Best practice though would be to clone the boot drive then upgrade one of them so you have something to fall back on. I never upgrade a full OS without doing this, just in case some apps don't play nice. Covers other potential issues too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DennisA Posted March 21, 2015 Share Posted March 21, 2015 Fmz 8 & 6.7.3 both run fine on Yosemite. You can run them both simultaneously if you have a concern. I have been doing that since 8 came out and I very rarely go back to 6.7.3 unless I want to clean up an older project to open in 8. If you set image size on a Renderzone Rendering and have item selected fmz 6.7.3 will crash. Also, just notice Manual does not display for me in 6.7.3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pipo Posted March 23, 2015 Share Posted March 23, 2015 6.7.3 worked fine for up to 10.9.5 but Yosemite prohibits an install because of a wibu error Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tech Posted March 23, 2015 Share Posted March 23, 2015 Hi Pipo, You just need to reinstall the WIBU Driver under 10.10... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pipo Posted March 24, 2015 Share Posted March 24, 2015 Hi Tech I had already installed the latest drivers prior to a 6.7.3 install.... Will wait to try again on new machines arriving shortly Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tech Posted March 24, 2015 Share Posted March 24, 2015 Hi Pipo, v6.7.3 is not supported on Yosemite, so we don't have a lot of additional suggestions, but if the current WIBU Driver is not working, perhaps you should try an older one? And make sure that the Application: WIBU: WkConfig software is working properly... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CHRISSYWADDLE Posted June 30, 2015 Share Posted June 30, 2015 I'm running 6.7.3 on Yosemite and all has been fine up until now (May 2015). It launches fine but file>open or cmd + open and it crashes everytime. Double clicking an .fmz file opens fine though and works with no crashes. I will try a re install as soon as i can. I've also had wibu key issues and hangs on saving/auto saving way back into snow leopard so doubt that is connected, maybe a key problem? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tech Posted June 30, 2015 Share Posted June 30, 2015 Hi Chrissy, First I would reinstall the WIBU Key Driver from half way down this page: WIBU Then make sure the key is plugged directly to the computer. If you still have any issues, Quit formZ, go to the Finder: Go Menu, hold down the Option key, choose Library: Preferences -- and rename the autodessys folder (add a number to the end of the name). Hopefully that solves the problem, but as noted, formZ 6.7.3 is not supported on Yosemite... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
